Sony’s “2 Mints In One”: VAIO LS1 TV/PC Combo
Published by John August 23rd, 2006 in PCs, TV
More and more TV shows are winding up on the Internet. More and more Internet content (YouTube, anyone?) is turning into TV shows.
Sony got the message and offers the VAIO LS1 19″ LCD TV and PC in one. There’s instantaneous switching between TV and computing functions, and no need to reboot along the way.
It’s also up-to-speed as far as operating systems, since it’s Windows Vista and Windows Vista Premium-ready. For now, it runs on Windows XP Media Center which means that it’s ready to record TV shows onto its 250 GB hard drive, right out of the box or burn them to DVD with the built-in DVD burner.
It does NOT appear to be HD-ready, however - no mention of component or HDMI inputs, and only an analog NTSC TV tuner - no digital (ATSC) tuner.
Expect it to retail for about $2,100 when it appears on the market next month.
